ABOUT THE ART

This body of work is about shared memories of putting our feet into the water for the first time. These paintings are a play between realism and abstraction and use transparent glaze layers to offer subtle color shifts and perceived depths of the water.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

I'm focused on oil painting, and specifically indirect painting. I make a detailed drawing before I paint, and when I paint I use thin layers of washes and glazes. Focusing on older aesthetics isn't a norm nowadays and that's something I hope changes, but that I enjoy a slow build of the surface. The focus is for creating a surface that mirrors the shallow depth of the waters edge on a beach, the areas that have strong tactile sensations on our feet, but create vivid images in our minds.
